My First Pokemon

The first episode was impressive, though hard to see. Pikachu looks down on Satoshi, a beginning trainer, reluctant to be with him. Rejected by his first friend, Satoshi tries to capture a monster by himself as he finds Pidgey, a bird-type monster. He, however, fails, and by accident provokes Spearow who has been near him. Spearow is also bird-typed, but aggressive. He aims at him with his sharp-pointed beak; Wild monsters dislike ones tamed by people, and often give battles to them. Spearow targets Pikachu.
Pikachu shoots an electric beam. Spearow gets a shock, flies away, then calls--to summon others of his species. His flock. A boy and Pokemon run away, side by side, sensing offensive sprits of Spearows behind themselves.
Pikachu stumbles, and Spearows swarm over him, insistantly pecking him. When Satoshi manages to rescue him, he is seriously hurt.
"No, Pikachu... We met just today" A sob breaks in Satoshi's tone, when he tells Pikachu weak on the ground. Satoshi got a bicycle from a girl (Kasumi. He saw her them), and ran through a mountain road with Pikachu in the basket. On the way the bicycle tumbled, and they were thrown to hit the ground. And Pikachu was too feeble to get up...
Spearows are near them now. Satoshi places a monster ball before Pikachu; Pikachu is afraid to be in the ball, but Satoshi thinks that he may be safe in it. "Be in it," Satoshi tells Pikachu. Seeing Pikachu nod, Satoshi faces Spearows, shielding his small friend.
It thunders, flashing around them. Pikachu leaps up, his cheek pouch sparkling electric sparks. He shoots electric beams.
Spearows fly away. Pikachu and Satoshi look at each other, recognizing strong bonds of friendship between them now.
